<\/p> $\"\"$ <\/a>The 2009 Hugo Awards Online Ballot is now available<\/a>. The deadline for voting is midnight (2359hrs.) Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) July 3, 2009.

Supporting memberships are relatively inexpensive $50USD\/$55CAN, and they\u2019re a downright steal when you consider that your membership grants you access to a Hugo Voter Packet containing the vast majority of this year\u2019s nominated novels, stories, and art.\n

In the Best Professional Artist category, I\u2019m proud to be nominated along with Dan Dos Santos<\/a>, Bob Eggleton<\/a>, Donato Giancola<\/a>, and Shaun Tan<\/a>. Voters for the Pro Artist Hugo are asked to consider published works by the nominees from the year 2008. For voters\u2019 convenience, here\u2019s a visual list of my published art from 2008<\/a>. In fact, if you\u2019re really pinched for time, you can just glance to the right and scroll through all of my \u201908 work in the sidebar. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
